A pendulum is made up of a small sphere of mass 0.500 kg attached to a string of length 0.950 m. The sphere is swinging back and

forth between point A, where the string is at the maximum angle of 35.0∘ to the left of vertical, and point C, where the string is at the maximum angle of 35.0∘ to the right of vertical. The string is vertical when the sphere is at point B. Calculate how much work the force of gravity does on the sphere from A to B.

Answer:

W = 0.842 J

Explanation:

To solve this exercise we can use the relationship between work and kinetic energy

         W = ΔK

In this case the kinetic energy at point A is zero since the system is stopped

         W = K_f                (1)

now let's use conservation of energy

starting point. Highest point A

          Em₀ = U = m g h

Final point. Lowest point B

         Em_f = K = ½ m v²

energy is conserved

         Em₀ = Em_f

         mg h = K

to find the height let's use trigonometry

at point A

            cos 35 = x / L

            x = L cos 35

so at the height is

            h = L - L cos 35

            h = L (1-cos 35)

we substitute

           K = m g L (1 -cos 35)

we substitute in equation 1

           W = m g L (1 -cos 35)

let's calculate

           W = 0.500 9.8 0.950 (1 - cos 35)

           W = 0.842 J

A car (mass = 1200 kg) is traveling at 31.1 m/s when it collides head-on with a sport utility vehicle (mass = 2830 kg) traveling
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

13.18 m/s

Explanation:

Let the velocity of sports utility car is

-u as it is moving in opposite direction.

mc = 1200 kg, uc = 31.1 m/s

ms = 2830 kg, us = - u = ?

Using conservation of momentum

mc × uc + ms × us = 0

1200 × 31.1 - 2830 × u = 0

u = 13.18 m/s
